Avery Noonan is a man with a unique ability. He sees people’s auras. He not only sees them, but he sees them in different colors. As he ages, he discovers the colors each take on their own meaning. He continues to learn more and more about this ability as his life progresses.
I tried. Felt like I was going to vomit. What comes after may very well be tamer, but the colonists disgust me, along with the gnos. Unless they disappear and are replaced by new characters... I'd be blowing up their world if I were writing the next chapter.
I think said all I can in the previous chapter. I felt sick reading the account of Peter’s pointless murder. I know it’s just a story, but I’m not enjoying it at all.
Touching, perhaps. I still can’t get past the cruelty of it all. First the fallacy that it needs to be done to appease some imaginary goddess (I really felt like typing godless there).
Secondly, why subject three innocent boys to the torture? If it must be done, one of the town leaders should man up and commit the deed. Instead, they pass it on to kids.
I’m still uncomfortable with the human sacrifice, but I shall persevere because someone I consider a friend asked me to.
An interesting start to a first story. While I am far from a romantic (although I do have my moments), I’m looking forward to see where this leads. Aside from Egypt, of course.
Wow. Ben sure unraveled totally. He’ll get through it because of the people around him that care for him, whether he believes they do or not. Fingers crossed for you Ben. 🤞🤞 Toes, legs and eyes too.
I took this line to mean it was more than 2 pills that time:
I popped the prescription bottle and took whatever fell into my hand.
Ben needs to confide in Josh about what’s wrong. That will probably open the door to Josh saying Ben is the one he’s interested in.
Like others, I think Ben is Josh’s secret friend. I have a feeling about Alex too. I think he’s making his money prostituting himself, and using prostitutes himself to fool himself that he’s not gay.
I’m fearful of Alex making a pass at Ben when they hang out, and send Ben into a panic. Hope I’m wrong.
You’ll find out about any potential homophobic feelings in a later chapter. Kathy was simply someone who didn’t have any intimate male contact before Abel, and got addicted to it once she did get that attention.
It’s very possible Yvette was driving. Coming home from a weekend away, maybe Travis was a little tipsy. He was a hard ass, but not really a bad guy. Just never got over having a daughter that got herself pregnant.
Had glasses from young, and metal braces too. Also was never satisfied with my appearance. I still find it hard to believe when someone calls me handsome. I always figured average was a better description.
